Real-World Safety and Effectiveness of Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol in Patients with Asthma and/or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: A Post-Marketing Study in Korea.
Observational study in Drug safety, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveFluticasone furoate/vilanterol (FF/VI; RELVAR ELLIPTA) is approved in Korea for patients with asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of FF/VI in Korean patients with asthma and/or COPD over a 6-year period.
methodsThis was an open-label, multicentre, observational, post-marketing surveillance study in patients newly treated with FF/VI (100 or 200 μg/25 μg once daily). Safety endpoints were the incidence of adverse events (AEs), including unexpected AEs/adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and serious AEs/ADRs. Effectiveness was assessed after 24 weeks by Global Physician Assessment (logistic regression) and forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV
resultsOf the 3426 patients enrolled across 45 hospitals between July 2014 and June 2020, 3216 were included in the safety analysis (50.5% female; mean age ± standard deviation [SD]: 58.6 ± 16.3 years). Overall incidence of AEs was 30.9% (n = 992); 4.1% (n = 132) were ADRs. Serious AEs were reported in 4.1% (n = 132) of patients; 0.1% (n = 4) were ADRs. Of 1543 patients analysed for symptomatic improvement, 89.2% (n = 1377) improved, 9.4% (n = 145) were unchanged, and 1.4% (n = 21) worsened. Mean FEV
conclusionIn this real-world study, FF/VI administered to Korean patients was well tolerated and effective for the treatment of asthma and COPD. These results were consistent with other studies in Asian and global populations.
